The North Face teams up with Aimé Leon Dore for capsule collection

U.S. outdoorwear brand The North Face has teamed up with New York City fashion brand Aimé Leon Dore for a limited-edition collaborative collection made up of high-end outdoor apparel, equipment, and footwear.

The North Face X Aimé Leon Dore collection sees the VF Corp.-owned brand’s classics reworked in the luxury fabrication of Aimé Leon Dore, including the brand’s iconic Nuptse Jacket, which has been re-worked in Casentino wool, as well as the Denali jacket reimagined in all nylon.

Other key pieces in the drop include the Ballistic Nylon Borealis Backpack, the Leather North Dome Rope Bag, the ​Verto Alpine Shoe, and the Firefighter Jacket — ​a three-layer weatherproof shell jacket that combines traditional firefighter details with urban design.

“Our collaboration with Aimé Leon Dore inspired us to reimagine iconic The North Face pieces originally born on the mountain,” said David Whetstone, The North Face’s director of global collaborations and energy.

“We’ve elevated classics like the Nuptse, Denali, Borealis and Verto with pinnacle materializations like Casentino Wool, Leather, and Ballistic Nylon which have unlocked a new depth of color within our Summit Gold, The North Face Blue and Evergreen iconic colors. Aimé Leon Dore’s focused point of view enhanced these icons from our DNA with careful consideration.”

The North Face X Aimé Leon Dore collection is set to launch on September 19 at Aimé Leon Dore’s New York and London locations and online, as well as in select The North Face stores in Asia.

Prices range from $60 to $725.
